According to the ESRB (see picture here) DarkStalkers will be making its way to PSN via PS One Classics. A representative for Capcom told FightVG.com that no announcements have been made for a Night Warriors release on PSN.

The site says DarkStalkers: The Night Warriors will be available on PS3 and PSP. The site did not give a release date.

Since the game is a PS One Classic, there will be no extra modes such as online play as it is a port of the original PlayStation version if the listing holds true.

The background of a new stage in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (UMvC 3) reveals a poster of past Marvel vs. Capcom characters that have yet to grace fans with their presence in the third installment of the game. All but one character is labeled apprehended, slain or missing.

That character is Mega Man.

The Unity-Ruleset Committee recently announced that they will ban Meta Knight on July, 9 2012 after Apex 2012.

The ban only follows those who use the Unity Ruleset.

The ruling has sort-of caused a split in the community between those who use the Unity Ruleset and those who don’t. One side argues that Meta Knight should not be banned and people should learn to deal with it and learn how to fight him. The other feels like the character is a plague to the community and is not allowing the competition aspect of Brawl to evolve.

Both sides constantly argue back in forth on rules that are constantly being made to change the competitive aspect of this game.
